Is it normal to think about death at least once a day?

Answer 1

ya its normal to think about our death

Answer 2

I have no idea if its normal, but then again what is normal, I would say there is no worries about thinking of death at least once a day, its one of the thinks that is a sure certainty in life and we all know its going to happen to us one day, so maybe thinking about it is a way of getting used to that certainty.

Answer 3

As your grow older you realise you are mortal and it is natural to think about this from time to time. To daily think of your own death is not really completely normal for someone below about 60 or so. If your thoughts of death involve any thoughts of suicide you are likely to be clinically depressed go and see your doctor NOW!
To think of others death daily is a little more normal but if the thoughts involve you causing them physical harm leading to their death the chances are you are stressed, not necessarily at the particular individual just stressed in general again go see your doctor.

Answer 4

I wouldn't have thought so, I don't but then that means nothing, as no-one is ever 'normal' what is 'normal' for that matter? because it might be more common for people in this generation to think about death than in the previous generations perhaps..maybe you have experienced some loss of a friend/family member and it has impacted you in a big way? ..I'm a christian so I don't think about death I tend to think about life, the next one...

Answer 5

What is Normal? No one knows what goes on inside your head but you. In the world of what people may think of as normal, I would say NO, it not normal to think of death that much! My daughter used to think like that all the time & attempted suicide 100's of times. She almost succeeded a few times, but really it was a cry out for help & I couldnt seem to get her the real help she needed. She is 31 yrs old now & finally getting the help.

I say you need to go to extreme lengths to get help, talk to someone a good friend, a loved one but especially a "Professional".

There are reasons to live, even if you dont think so right now, GET HELP PLEASE! I cannot imagine how you feel but my daughter has tried to tell me for years. I cant imagine losing her tho. Think of your loved ones first, then think if someone you love so much died & you dont get to see them or talk to them ever again!!!!! Pray about it too. My love & prayers & concern goes out to you.

Answer 6

I have been thinking about death a lot recently because a good freind of mine is dying. She is not much older than me.

However if you are young and haven't had a recent encounter with close friends or family dying I don't think it is normal.

( If you have a newborn baby , I think Parents often worry about their own death)

Answer 7

yeah, it's normal. After all it's probably the only big thing to think about in your life (or afterlife). Let's face it, your death's going to be with you longer that your life, you follow? And everything else you think is just so important to think and worry about now will become inconsequential. You're just thinking about the only real certainty and experience we'll all get so what's wrong with that!

Answer 8

Death whether we like it or not will surely come, as to when, we do not know. I think part of facing death is to consider and prepare ourselves that death is something that we look forward to. Ask yourself, i am ready to die? [spiritually, physically etc.] It is like saying that death is something that i already experience now.
I have my memorial plan, and it is part of facing death as something that will come in the future. Look back and see what have you done so far. Don't be afraid!

Answer 9

There's nothing abnormal about it. Death is one of life's certainties. All of us will eventually die. So it's quite normal for us to be wary or a bit scared of it. But remember, don't let it hinder you from living your life fully. Assume the worst, yet hope for the best. Good luck!

Answer 10

The only thing that is certain in life is death. It is not wierd to think about it every day as long as you are not dwelling on it or getting too upset about it. As a young person, its one of the scariest things to understand but as you get older i think you accept it.

Answer 11

Depends how you are thinking about it I would say.
If you are ill or somebody near to you is ill then I'd say yes, it's normal. If you are thinking about ending it all as you are unhappy then no, that's not good, go and seek help. If you are perfectly happy and you are not an undertaker or mortician or something of the like then I would again say, abnormal and go seek help.
